[Master K] The bad one next door

The hustle and bustle of the crowd came into view, but the boy on the motorcycle was nowhere to be seen.

After searching unsuccessfully for several times, Misaki Hatta had to step on the brake at the end of the skateboard and give up chasing amidst the screeching sound of plastic rubbing.

"Damn it, did you let him escape—!"

He cursed angrily, scratched his messy hair, and turned back to sail with a depressed face.The sun climbed up little by little as time passed, and it was already hanging above the head unconsciously, and even the scorching air began to twist.Hatta manipulated the skateboard, nimbly moving through the crowd, and the shell of the terminal in his hand was slightly hot.

He looked down at the white terminal, feeling lost in thought.

——By the way, I haven't seen Miya at all.

He said he wanted to find Miya, but in the end, he chased after him and forgot his original purpose.Up to now, the only clue has been lost, and Zhenya is also missing.

Where the hell is she—

There is always a bad feeling.

Hatta pursed his lips, put the terminal back into his pocket, and looked forward again.He turned the corner and came to the intersection in the middle of the town.At this moment, a familiar figure suddenly broke into the field of vision.

"……what?"

He couldn't help but stay for a while.

——In the middle of the crossroads, a black and slender figure squeezed through the crowd and galloped forward desperately.

……wait wait wait.

Isn't that guy the man in the black hood that Maki was looking for? !

Before he could really react, his partner was already close at hand.Seeing that the high-speed moving skateboard and the running black hooded man were about to collide, Hatta was in a hurry, grabbed a stick by the side of the road and flew over fiercely, shouting:

"Hey! Bastard, don't get in the way!"

Accompanied by the angry roar, the stick danced in circles in the air, and hit the black hooded man's abdomen accurately and vigorously a few tenths of a second later.

An unbearable force came from the contact surface, the body of the stick was slightly sunken into the belly, the man in the black hood tilted his body, and was successfully ejected before the two collided.

"boom!"

"Clang-crack-"

He was knocked into the air for a long distance, his body crossed a beautiful parabola, and finally hit the electric pole hard under the astonished eyes of the surrounding audience, and fell to the ground together with the stick like a rag doll. made a sound.

Hatta walked into the middle of the intersection on his skateboard.He glanced at the half-dead man in the black hood not far away, and frowned.

"What are you doing, this guy, why does he look like he is running for his life..."

He muttered and looked towards the way the other party came.It's better not to look at it, but when he saw it, his eyes widened immediately.

Gradually driving slowly in this direction was a motorcycle, and the dumbfounded silver-haired boy in the front driver's seat looked very familiar.

— but that's not the point.

The point is, the black-haired girl sitting behind the silver-haired boy, wearing a hard hat and holding a gun in her hand, is staring blankly at this side.

……

A moment of silence.

Hirobe looked confused: "Who the hell can tell me what happened? The Saiyan came to this world?"

However, the girl behind him did not reply to him as usual.

"What's wrong? Are you frightened?" Hirobe turned his head, trying to bring her back to his senses with a brisk tone, but he saw her blank and terrified expression at a glance, "—Yayaya Yazawa-chan?! Are you all right?" ?”

Shinya stared straight ahead, his hand holding the gun trembled: "I was, I was seen..."

"……what?"

"-I was seen by him!" Mami grabbed the corner of his clothes like a collapse, almost crying, "I never told him that I was a martial detective, and Wuyue was not here...what should I do? ?!"

"Ah, ah? Chasing Tian? 'Him'? Wait..." Hirobe, who was keenly aware of something wrong, panicked for a moment, and quickly patted her in a good voice, "Hey Yazawa-chan, you first Calm down, let's find a solution together if there is something wrong, and share the joys and sorrows of life and death, although I don't understand what you are talking about..."

"——how do you think of it?"

His comforting words were interrupted by a low voice suddenly sounding from beside him.

Startled, the two hurriedly looked up.

An orange-haired boy wearing a black turban came before them at some point.He stepped on the skateboard, crossed his hands in front of his chest, exuded a shocking low air pressure, and suppressed anger in his cold stare at Mami: "Say, what can you do?"

The tone was so cold that it was almost slag.

Maki turned her eyes away, bit her lower lip and said nothing.

Hirobe was stunned for a long time before he could react, and was immediately dumbfounded: "Wait, wait, Misaki Hatta?!" He looked back and forth between the two of them for a while at a loss, and seemed to understand something, "You know each other?"

No one said anything.The orange-haired boy and the black-haired girl were both silent, and the atmosphere at the scene was extremely stiff.

……

...Hey, this is really embarrassing, which one of you gave me a word!

The Hirobe boy who was ignored wanted to cry but had no tears.

Of course, in this situation, no one noticed his feelings at all, and Hatta even showed a disgusted expression of "Why is this person so in the way".Instinctively, he couldn't just squeeze into the area of ​​these two people, Hirobe finally glanced at Maya, and after confirming that there would be nothing wrong with the other party, he decisively decided to leave: "Hahaha, then you talk first, I'll go and see Fujiwara, if there's anything to do calls me."

After all, he didn't even want the car, turned around and ran away in a hurry.

Maki: "..." Hey, we agreed to share weal and woe through life and death!

The sound of Hirobe's footsteps gradually weakened, and after a while, his voice talking to Fujiwara could be faintly heard in the distance.

After he left, the atmosphere between the childhood sweethearts became more delicate.Because Hatta didn't get a reply for a long time, his mood became more and more irritable. He held the baseball bat in his right hand and almost crushed it: "What the hell are you thinking! Don't tell me such an important thing! Hurry up! Looking for death?! Ah?"

"..."

— Sure enough, he heard it.

Mami opened her mouth, wanting to answer, but her mind went blank at the critical moment, and finally there was only a moment of silence struggling from between her lips.The heart-piercing pain on her arm became more and more clear, and the nerves were stimulated by jumps, making her clenched her fists unconsciously.

"I……"

But Misaki Hatta didn't give her a chance to explain.

"So why did you hide from me that I was a Butei! Just now I was trying to find a way to continue to fool me-why can't I be more honest? Obviously I have already..." He couldn't continue, gritted his teeth and turned his face, His eyes were slightly red, "Damn it, sure enough...you, that bastard Ape Biko, you have never trusted me! You are all idiots who want to go their own way!"

Miya slightly opened his eyes.

The orange-haired boy showed an expression she had never seen before.

——It was a hurt expression like being betrayed by someone.

It is rare for Maiya to see Hatta showing a weak look in front of him, so he naively thinks that this strong young man can stand up quickly no matter what kind of blow he experiences.But she forgot that no matter how strong he is, this boy who wants to shield her from wind and rain is a living, flesh and blood person.

Just like she learned that he was a member of the Barbara two years ago, he would also feel sad because of his friend's concealment.

After realizing my mistake belatedly, a sense of guilt arises spontaneously in my heart.Maki couldn't care about the pain in her arm, her eyes were fixed on Hatta's side face, and she stepped forward anxiously to explain.

"No, that's not the case! Actually, I..."

However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a scream from not far away.

"—Hey! W-what...?!"

The familiar young voice startled the two of them, and they both turned their heads away.Then, a rich black spread in the sight.

A black mist mixed with icy breath rose slowly from the ground, and the space where it passed was slightly distorted.Shinichi Hirobe sat down on the ground, staring dumbfounded at the source of the black air in front of him—Fujiwara Kota, who was exuding black air all over his body—standing up tremblingly while supporting the concrete floor, with broken handcuffs scattered around his feet.

Mami was stunned: "This is..."

In the next second, Fujiwara jumped up quickly, and his figure turned into a shadow, rushing towards them with lightning speed.

"Yazawa-chan! Be careful—"

Before Hirobe's anxious voice fell, the pitch-black figure was close at hand, and huge black sharp claws formed on the raised arms.

His vision suddenly darkened slightly, and Fujiwara's movements in front of him became sluggish and slow as if slowed down.Mami watched helplessly as the sharp claws that tore through the air got closer and closer. His mind had already captured its movement trajectory, but his body was so stiff that he couldn't move.

Sudden--

A shadow of burning flames flashed past in front of him.

Accompanied by the sound of "clang!", the violent impact of iron objects echoed in the air.

"Hey! Maki, back off!"

The orange-haired boy stood in front of her at some point, and abruptly received the black claw's attack with a baseball bat.After he finished shouting, his legs on the skateboard slightly bent his knees, and he swung his stick vigorously, deflecting the opponent's strength, and continued to shout at her who was still in a daze without looking back: "Mami! Did you hear me, Get out now!"

The crowd of onlookers finally reacted belatedly, let out bursts of screams, and began to scramble to escape, and the scene was chaotic for a while.People kept rushing past him, Mami looked at his back and clenched his gun tightly: "But..."

"No but! Hurry up!" Hatta swung his stick towards Fujiwara's head, and after being easily dodged by the opponent's head, he frowned and smacked his lips, "Tsk... did you dodge?"

Then, the two fought like this.Maki pursed her lips, moved her gaze, and glanced anxiously on the street through the noisy crowd.

A broken street lamp... no.In the crowd... no.Hirobe-kun's motorcycle... no.

Her eyes flicked over one hiding place after another, and finally settled on the door of the store not far from the two of them.The shop windows were shattered, revealing gaping gaps.Her eyes lit up, and her spirit instantly cheered up.

--right here!

Maya clenched her gun tightly, turned her head and ran quickly towards the store.After running for a few steps, she remembered something, stopped, turned around and shouted to Hatta who was fighting: "Misaki, please be careful! Please!"

The body of the orange-haired boy seemed to have paused, and he continued to fight again.Maya no longer wasted time, turned around, and continued to run towards the destination at the fastest speed.

Hearing the sound of her leaving footsteps, Hatta and the skateboard fell back to the ground.He held the baseball bat in front of him, his amber eyes were fixed on the man in the black hood, and the pupils seemed to reflect the raging fire.

"I'm talking about you... You really are the accomplice of that group of guys in the morning. This black color is so vivid that it makes people hate it." He flicked the baseball bat casually. Scorching Flame, "Although you are indeed a little bit stronger than those guys, but--in the eyes of my Yatagara-sama, it is still far from enough!"

"Besides, you just wanted to hurt my companion..."

He assumed a fighting posture, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"—So, go to hell with me!"

……

Miya poked her head out from behind the shattered glass window.

From this angle, you can clearly see the whole street.In the scenery that came into view, the street lamps were broken and devastated. Two shadows, one red and one black, jumped and collided in the middle of the street, bursting out fierce sparks from time to time.

——As guided by her instinct as a sniper, this is an excellent sniper position.

The shop she was in was a clothing store, and the mannequins in fashion and the hangers full of clothes fell to the ground in a mess, and the air was full of dust and acrid smell.Shinya squatted down by the wall, loaded the gun in his hand, and pointed in the direction where Hatta and Fujiwara were fighting.Although Hirobe's gun is not the best, but at a distance of less than 200 meters, it is still possible to perfectly snipe opponents with ordinary guns.

- Logically speaking, that's right.

She looked at the two people not far away and frowned.

——However, it was too fast.

As combat-type ability users, Hatta and Fujiwara move very quickly when fighting. They often appear above each other one second, and appear behind each other the next second, completely unable to see their movements.Even if you can see it clearly, it is difficult to aim in this situation where the position is always switching. If you are not careful, the bullet may miss and hit Hatta.

At this moment, the battle had already reached a fever pitch, and two figures, one red and one black, kept interlacing, which made her hesitate to pull the trigger.

In this case, how should...

Maki bit her lower lip, feeling more and more anxious.

With a sound of "Clang!", the black sharp claws swung by Fujiwara were once again blocked by Hatta with a skateboard.Staring at the dense black air sizzling and spreading around his palm, Mami suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help being taken aback.

——Speaking of which, when Fujiwara attacked her just now, she did see clearly the trajectory of his claws for a moment.Thinking about it carefully, this situation seemed to have happened in the entrance exam a month and a half ago, and it gave her great help.

Although she didn't pay much attention to it, if she can use this ability at this time, the deadlock can be completely reversed-it's a pity that even she herself doesn't know how that strange perspective change happened.

Could she just wait for Hatta to defeat Fujiwara little by little?

"...Sure enough, it's still unacceptable."

Miya whispered to himself.Then, she shook her head vigorously, clearing away the distracting thoughts in her head, and refocusing on the battle situation.

—Forget it, since there is nothing we can do now, we can only calm down and wait for the opportunity.

She fixed her eyes on the two figures shuttling on the street, kept her hand holding the gun steady, and hid her body behind the glass window of the store, waiting for an opportunity to move.
